Robert Bobb, the former Oakland City Manager, possible candidate for Oakland mayor, and currently Emergency Financial Manager for The Detroit Public School system is on CNN now regarding the identification and arrest of employees in the Detroit Public School system (DPSS). Bobb already made headlines when he had the DPSS file for bankruptcy; now there's more news and while it's not good for the system, it's good for Bobb.

Bobb said got a tip regarding embezzlement of funds from the system's new hot line installed to identify such problems, but what is being done to monitor employees in the future? "We have already implemented a very strong monitoring system," Bobb said. "Individuals who would be cheating the system will be caught." CNN's Kyra Phillips is hailing Bobb with what is a "great job" salute.

It's still not clear that Bobb, or "Mr. Bobb" as some call him, is going to run for Mayor of Oakland, but with his work in reforming the finances of the DPSS, it's clear that after his year-long engagement is done, he can write his ticket to his next job. If Robert does chose to run for Mayor of Oakland, former State Senator Don Perata would be in for the fight of his life because Bobb now has a firm reputation as a national "fix-it" man for municipal governments.

If you bank with Bank of America in Oakland, be careful because according to the Oakland Tribune, BofA branches are being robbed of late. First there was the Diamond District, then just this week East Oakland. Who's next? No branch I hope. Be watchful.
